Rockville, MD -- (SBWire) -- 11/09/2018 --Silyl Modified Polymer (MS Polymer) Market: Introduction

MS polymers, also known as silyl modified polymers or silyl terminated polymers, are polymers with a silane group. A silyl modified polymer (MS polymer) usually refers to a hybrid polymer backbone, usually polyurethane or polyether and a silane end group. Formulators can change the backbone polymer in sealants and adhesives utilizing MS polymers to match the specified application, achieving silicone-like performance while avoiding the high silicone cost. MS polymers are widely used to manufacture solvent-free and isocyanate-free sealants and adhesives. Adhesives containing MS polymers offer better adhesion for a variety of substrates. These adhesives and sealants have wide operating temperature ranges and are resistant to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. silyl modified polymer (MS polymer) sealants are used to bond several types of substrates, including metals, wood, fiberglass and plastics. The sealants offer comparatively better cohesion both above and below the waterline.

MS polymers can be tailor-made as per particular applications without compromising on properties such as weatherability, UV radiation stability, hydrophobicity and enhanced mechanical performance. Along with being environment-friendly, MS polymers are odorless and fast curing. Further, silyl modified polymer (MS polymer) based adhesives and sealants can be painted and coated, which offers manufacturers the freedom of design at a comparatively lower cost as compared to silicone-based products.

Silyl Modified Polymer (MS Polymer) Market: Dynamics

The cost effectiveness of silyl modified polymer (MS polymer) based sealants and adhesives is a key factor contributing to the growth of the market. Although the market is highly dominated by silicone-based products, silyl modified polymers, or MS polymers, are rapidly gaining traction in the market. MS polymers have been garnering attention from manufacturers and formulators alike due to the synergy they offer between silane and polymer materials. Fast curing, immediate paintability and no bubbling during cure are some of the features that contribute to its growing demand. As MS ploymers are solvent-free and isocyanate-free, they are environment-friendly. Thus, given the increasing regulations regarding VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) content, the silyl modified polymer (MS polymer) market is pegged to witness smooth growth throughout the forecast period.

However, currently the global adhesives and sealants market is dominated by silicone based products and silyl modified polymer (MS polymer) holds a comparatively smaller share. The market is expected to gradually gain pace but the adoption rate is quite slow among end users.

A considerable amount of resources are being invested in silyl modified polymer (MS polymer) and hybrid sealants and newly developed products are expected to be commercialized soon. Thus, innovation is estimated to create a high opportunity in the silyl modified polymer (MS polymer) market.
